Apple plans to power
its massive North
Carolina data center
with the biggest
end-user-owned solar
farm in the country.

Apple Inc. said
Monday that it plans
to power its massive
data center in North
Carolina with
equally massive
solar and fuel-cell
installations.
The company said the
solar array,
expected to cover
much of 100 acres,
will be the biggest
end-user-owned
installation in the
country. Its
capacity is
estimated at 20
megawatts, supplying
42 million kilowatt
hours of solar power
annually.
The fuel-cell
installation is
estimated at 5
megawatts and will
be fueled by biogas.
Two likely suppliers
of the fuel cells
are Bloom Energy or
FuelCell Energy .

Apple has already
spent an estimated
$1 billion to build
the
500,000-square-foot
data center in
Maiden, N.C., which
plays a major role
in its iCloud
storage and sync
service and its Siri
voice-activated
personal assistant.
The fact that the
company planned to
build a large solar
farm next to the
data center has been
known since last
year but the exact
size hadn't been
revealed until Apple
issued an
environmental report
Monday, along with a
facilities report.
